Curiosity opened the door and stepped out onto the observation deck of Aperture Science.

While it was underground, the ceiling was made of glass so the aperture science androids could gaze into the sky.

Curiosity wasn't too bothered with the night sky; she was more fascinated with the octagonal shape of the room.

She gasped when she heard the door open, it was 1 in the morning, and GLaDOS would incinerate her if she found her in here.

"Hello?" a masculine voice came from the darkness. It was probably one of the defective turrets, trying to sing his praises to a personality android. But when curiosity whipped round she saw a pale blond haired man standing there smiling.

"Who are you?" She asked, terrified it was one of her new patrol-bots. He laughed at her fear, she was being silly and she should have been annoyed by his presence, not scared.

"I'm space" He gave her a gentle smile before returning her question.

After all the greetings and clearing it up with curiosity that he was not going to hurt her, space slipped his hand within hers.

"What are you doing?" She asked, looking puzzled as he tugged her towards a panel in the wall. Curiosity had never known an android to pull on another android like this before; it usually felt like you were being dragged away to an incinerator, but this felt more calming, more of a reassuring pull, one could even say affectionate. But they are only androids right? Androids don't feel love...or do they?

"I want to show you something, and don't ask what, I want this to be a surprise!" He grinned at her.

Behind the panel was a passage way, and as they walked hand-in-hand along it, curiosity tried not to giggle. Didn't even question where he was taking her, why she felt funny in her stomach, why her heart was pounding (and not just from adrenaline)...

Eventually they found themselves standing in the middle of a field.

"Where are we?" Curiosity asked, almost stunned when she found herself gazing into space's golden eyes. Why was she acting like this?

"Outside...I'm surprised you haven't asked why I'm called space..." He thought to himself: no one has asked me why I'm called space, probably because they knew I would start talking about space non-stop...

"Why are you called space?" He jumped back. Ok, so her name is curiosity, but even he thought she would be smart enough to know never under any circumstances to ask that!

"Because I love space, space is great! It has stars and a sun and planets and it's really big and huge and really-wait, why are you laughing?" Curiosity was politely covering her mouth, in an attempt not to insult space about how ridiculous he sounded, but she was laughing louder than she thought.

"Because you sound funny, all you do is talk about space and it's cute" She smiled, reassuring him that what he had just said didn't make him stupid, just really adorable.

She already knew what space was, but she wanted to ask him just so she could listen to his loveable ramblings again. It was 3 in the morning by the time he stopped talking about space.

He looked at every inch of her, from her grey boots to her bright orange shoulder length hair. He grabbed both her shoulders, pulled her close and both of them stared into each other's eyes when their lips met. GLaDOS wouldn't just incinerate them if she found out about this; she would turn the incinerator up to 5000 degrees Kelvin for the kiss they just shared. But for the 10 seconds that they locked lips, even she didn't seem so terrifying.

For that short while, the most evil of thoughts was the moment that their kiss would end...
